Ather Community Day 2025 | All Updates

Is it limited to only apex models? Is it backward compatible?

This feature might be backward compatible as the controller is made this way. Hope the FW update can enable it.

Or they might require users to upgrade their controllers to ADC from mahle

As Chandler Bing would say..

“Okay, so you’re telling me that this scooter, which is basically a tablet on wheels, can download new maps, new UI, and even WhatsApp messages… but cruise control? That requires a whole new scooter. Yeah, that makes sense. It’s like my dad. He can remember the lyrics to every single song on the radio, but a simple ‘I love you’? No, that’s a hardware limitation. You can’t fix that with a software update.”

They would probably limit it to scooters with the new Switch Gear. They ran out of buttons and combinations as we predicted before Gen 3..

Bro. …

This really might be hardware limitations, ADC is Ather Driver Controller. Which Ather has personally developed. So it really might be Mahle problem which did not provide proper parameters.

So yes gen 4 and above might be compatible but might not be for gen 3 and below

Also i heard that entire statement in chandler bing’s sarcastic voice

Not Official But I heard this from a Person But I hope not like that

No Bro, Ather test things for years. So Early is not a Right way to tell. Maybe Now They have solved all the Bugs. Maybe.

But Apex and a Gen 4&5 have Huge Similarity Bro

If Apex can why not Gen 4&5

Let’s wait for a week to know the Moment of Truth :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Gen 3 4 5 Apex all the same controller, infact Apex uses the full fat ADC from Gen 3 era. Cruise Control was already implemented in Gen 4 but Ather pulled it back because of low quality brake switches.

Why are people forgetting this smh.

Good thing they did, my brake switch broke and now flickers the tail lights and doesn’t start the scooter reliably.

Seems they found an interesting solution to this issue.

I don’t forget that, I remember when I got a Chance to Early Access the Magic Twist in Whee Camp II at Aruani We saw Reverse/Cruise Control sticker on That Button

So Yes, Practically Ather can bring City Cruise :trade_mark: on Gen 3 and Above but Without Switch Gears in Gen 3

Ather now may bring CC on Gen 4 and Above :smiling_face_with_sunglasses::high_voltage:

Yup.

Gen 1.5, 5 years now, switch works flawlessly, I don’t understand what was screwed up in the BOM room while selecting the quality.

“coughs” Typical UNO minda quality.
